[tcljava-user] Reasons for using JACL?

[Patrick F. <pfi...@oz...>]

It seems to me that the primary purpose of JACL is to allow java programmers 
write procedural non object orientated code that will run under a JVM and 
perhaps allow non java programmers to access or administer the application 
through a simple script interface .  Are there any other reasons why Java 
programmers would embed JACL or indeed Jython in a Java application rather 
then writing everything in pure Java?
